ABOUT THE FORAGER:

The Forager from Haygain - the ideal slow feeder that encourages a natural way of eating forage so your horse stays healthy and happy.  

The Forager has been designed to simulate a horse’s natural, slow and steady eating behaviour. The design ensures only small, bite sized, portions of forage can be taken at one time and this has a number of physical and mental health benefits for horses that are stabled for long periods of time.   

Slow Feeding Benefits:   

  • Aid Digestive Health – optimum digestive health requires a consistent supply of forage which not only protects the stomach but also promotes consistent fermentation, effectively keeping the hindgut weighted and motile, thereby preventing conditions that contribute to Colic.  
  • Promotes saliva - consistent chewing of small portions of forage maintains a flow of saliva which is crucial for the stomach and digestion.  
  • Helps to reduce the risk of Gastric Ulcers   a steady supply of forage to the stomach creates a protective mat on top of the stomach contents preventing gastric acid splashing onto the sensitive upper region as well as good supply of saliva acts as a buffer against gastric acid. 
  • Helps to reduce stable boredom and associated stereotypies  slow feeding helps to combat stable boredom, discomfort and vices such as box walking, stall kicking and weaving. 
  • Weight management – the Forager offers the ability to provide access to forage 24/7 without allowing horses to over-eat or gorge. Ideal for overweight or horses prone to laminitis.  
  • Eliminates the need for haynets – haynets are known for putting strain on a horses musculoskeletal system. 
  • Ensures a clean supply of forage with no waste – stops cross contamination of forage and bedding. Saves time and money on mucking out and hay wastage.  
  • Easy to use, fill, clean and can be flat packed for travel.
